Subject: Crafty for the Mac/PPc

Good Day everyone, and to all who own Macs. This is regarding openning
books and table base. I have ran crafty on the Mac and its a good
machine for crafty to run on. So now i have some questions. What is the
proper t/b w/b for the end game for the Mac? Some of the t/b seems to be
corrupted and outdated. The large books seemed to be outdated and
corrupt. I have put the whole thing togather last year and tested aganst
Hiarcs 1.0 It did pretty well aganst Hiarcs 1.0 And its runs real fast
on the Mac PPc. Has anybody did any real testing, Crafty Vs. Hiarcs 6.0.
I havent done any testing, Im incline to belive that Craft will do well,
if you chess programmer put your minds to it, And that would be a nice
project to work on; since the Crafty chess program has not been updated
for some time. So anyway more questions. How do one use unity, to put
togather the t/b and the larg books, and to get them to work properly
and up and running for the Mac? Ps.Crafty for the Mac even when its not
put togather right it works real good with the graphical chess interface
or if one want to use the keyboard to input the moves. It has been
proven that Crafty and Hiarcs runs faster on the Mac than IBM machine or
its clones/infact The old, new and future Mac O/S is a good platform to
run the best chess programs. Case and point, if Rebel was written for
the mac, it would unbeatable. Can anybody prove me wrong that the IBM
machines are a beter platform. Why dont you guys put it to test, you got
the money and the machines and the brains, lets do it!/ I would like
some postive answer and feedback. Respectfully/William Dozier.
